If I were are beginning taxidermist and would read these post, man would I think different about being a part of a PROFESSION that (as it seems to someone who is here with us for the first time) argues and puts each other down..I use this forum to learn from yall..I have respect for all of you and taxidermy..Lets keep helping those who want it..NO more bashing..SORRY I am usually silent here..I have been doing birds for about 2 years..Being new I only speak because I am new to this profession (whether you are fuultime, parttime, or on the side we are professionals) and this is discouraging..

sounds like

Naaaa......

It's just sugar and spice! Rod...don't be silent anymore, look what you have to offer!

Your going to have to learn the names of those who have useful information to offer, and those who revert back to high school bull---- in hopes they may sound intimidating. Once you know the names of those you should read, and those you should scan right over. I assure you, you will learn a lot more and make better use of what little time you probably have to utilize the forum. And Lisa..I can't wait to meet you.

everyone can help

What the hell are you talking about? Do you even compete? Probably not, do you even know who youre talking to? If you did maybe you would show a little more repect. And who give a damn about your (big kind husband) oh wait......I don't. So why don't you research what your talking about before you go off on you whim. Oh and I was there and heard the judge say that at the bar that night along with someone else. Uh-oh.....looks like it is true.

Ducky kid

Hey there Duck Boy, please tell us who we should respect, oh, and why. Don't know if you realize it or not but, it is very hard to know who you are talking to when a person uses a fake name and cannot be man enough to leave his email address when slamming someone else.

Speaking of being man enough, when you happen to eves drop on someone elses conversation, and happen to hear something that don't sit right with you, why not try to be a man and take it up with that person face to face rather than try to drag his good name through the mud like you're trying to do here. My email address is posted above and if you have anything to say, I would be happy to talk about it. I suspect you won't even do that though as I would then have your address to post here where you have forgotten to.

I have heard before about guy's being unhappy with their score in a competition. Personnally I don't understand it as entering a competition is a personal choice and if you don't think you will be satisfied with the results, or, if you already think you know more than the judge, why enter at all? In addition, all competitions have rules to follow and one of those rule states that all scores are final. If you have a complaint, you must file it with the competition commitee, not voice it with the judge. Bottom line is you should go there to learn and if you don't like what is being said, maybe you should take the judges test so you can subject yourself to whiners and complainers such as yourself. I for one, have yet to come away without learning something and I suspect that is probably true also for the person who started all of this. If a ribbon is all you want, go down to the novelty store and by one, it's allot cheaper than doing a good mount worthy of winning one.

All those judges have had to go through the same things as all of us. Learning by trial and error and being judged at competitions. They are achievers who have not let bad scores get in the way of progressing and moving forward in the art they love and acomlishing a high level of success and knowledge. They deserve our respect and I believe they also respect us as they have been there and know what we are trying to achieve. On the flip side though they are still just men and women, just like us, with the same day to day tasks of trying to make a decent living for their families and don't need a bunch of $hit thrown in their face while trying to help someone out. I'm sure you wouldn't appreciate that either duckie.

Rod summed all this up perfectly in an earlier post when he said no more bashing. Be a man duck weed and talk to that individual himself, you may come away enlightened and be able to work things out.

Not looking for a cyber fight and was not insinuateing one, would just like to talk things out privately with folks rather than slamming them in public constantly like what he is trying to do here.
